...Now, since he called a snap election we all KNOW this is self-serving action to get him re-elected...but I gotta give the guy credit because he's a bully himself, and he's using bullying tactics against Trump and Musk and if ANYTHING is going to get him re-elected in this province, it's this. ...
...Trump pissed Quebec off so much that they are siding with English Canadians....do you know how RARE that shit is?

weirdest timeline EVER.

It was good getting to know some of you Canadians before the war.

It's good getting to know a Californian before you become a province after your inevitable secession.

We'll take Cali, Alaska, and all of New England, thanks so much, eh. Oh, and Greenland too, because fuck Donald. Sorry. Eh.

You can have England too because while they've got rid of the Tories they're still fannying about and screwing things up.

I didn't realize how not-liked Keir Starmer is over there. Craycray times around the world.

He basically ran the election last year on "at least I'm not the Tories" which, don't get me wrong, is a very strong point to make, but he's basically become a bit of an ineffectual centrist who pleases no-one and in reality isn't that much different to the Tories himself.

He pleases Trump though!

Which is sure to make him very popular over there...

Trump can gargle my bits and pieces.

I dunno if I'e ever hated someone more.

Well there's Elon Musk, Putin and Netanyahu who are all in a dire need of having a short chat with Karsa. And I can think of a few more such ...... scum.

Yep, all of the above too.

been hearing musings about 100% tariffs on teslas.

Curious what the impact would be.

Also still waiting on my $200 bribe check so I can donate it to bonnie Crombie's campaign.

He's Provincial NDP, our most left party, so yeah I agree!

Sadly, we'd need Jagmeet to vacate the Federal NDP leadership spot if the NDP ever had a shot at the crown, as he's not leading the NDP to anything and needs to walk so they can have a leadership election.

I'm just impressed how Trumps absolute chaotic first few weeks have ended up showing Pollievre up for what he is (and has always been) to people who might have otherwise voted conservative. The Conservative polling is dropping like a stone after Trumps inauguration....whether that's because most of the other politicians are preaching unity under Tariff and annexation threats, while he continues to preach division, or because his rhetoric lines up with Trumps and most of us find that immensely distasteful, or because Carney is an economic whizz who seems to be a centrist with our best interests as a country at heart (and is ditching the Carbon Tax himself)...a man who (and UKers here will get a kick out of this) the talking point the Right Wing has about him is that he "Screwed up Britain...according to Liz Truss...."...which is yes, as funny as it seems as a defence...or that in the face of a lack of the two things he's been railing about for two years (Trudeau and Carbon tax) he no longer has anything to campaign on (which is why his new pivot is "stop the drugs"...advice he should take himself) so he's floundering.


Anyways, fun to watch. Pre-Trump inauguration the Cons were like "Look at the polls! They say we are way ahead! It's a slam dunk!".....but now that the polls have turned against them they are like "What, you're going to trust polls?! They can't be trusted"...


Do the Cons and PP still win an eventual election? Perhaps. But at least now it seems like if that happens, it's going to be a minority where he can be safely non-coinfidenced by the Libs/NDP/Bloq so they have to pony up a leader who is better than warmed-over-Angry-Milhouse.

I acknowledge everything terrible, I feel viscerally angry/sick about most of it.... but still I laugh as i'm repeatedly reminded that Trimp being elected was the worse thing that could have happened to PP and the best thing that could have happened to the Libs. The irony is universe-has-a-sense-of-humor level.

I call your local distillers and raise you one better that's about 15 minutes north of Ottawa.

https://dairydistillery.com/

(though to be fair, the guys at North of 7 are pretty cool).

Back in 2021 me and the boyz went on a cross Ontario roadtrip visting distilleries from Ottawa, to Sudbury, to Windsor and Niagara.

Met some cool people, and drank even cooler stuff. But if you're in the Ottawa region, check out dairy distillery. You can do a tasting for free, pickup some unique alcohol, and while you're there treat yourself to some amazing donuts and chocolate from a pair of amazing places nearby.

[Tiste Simeon]

Any of them ship internationally?
